Nine women from Ararat region of Armenia learned tapestry weaving with
support of the ICRC, the Armenian Red Cross and local partners. They are
wives of people who went missing in the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict of 1992-1994.

In 2010, the ICRC launched a Psychosocial Support Programme called
Hateymalo (Joining Hands) to help the families of the missing by
providing psychological, social-cultural, economic and legal support. By
March 2016, covering over 90% of the families of the missing the
programme was completed in 46 districts in Nepal.

Armed conflict in northeast Nigeria and the Lake Chad region has displaced an estimated two million people. Around 150,000 people have fled to neighbouring countries while many more remain internally displaced.

Since the Burundi crisis began in 2015, more than 250,000 people have fled to the neighbouring countries of Rwanda, Tanzania, Democratic Republic of the Congo and Uganda. Many families were split up as they fled. Now, people live with the terror of what might have happened to their relatives.

Every year, hundreds of individuals leave their communities in Mexico
and Central America to embark on a journey in search of a better future.
As they head north, migrants may lose contact with their families,
causing anguish and uncertainty.

Despite the violence in Juba, South Sudan, our teams are active in places like Wau, where we are helping people who have been separated by conflict find each other. At displacement sites near Wau, we are also providing food, access to drinking water, and bringing the wounded to medical facilities to be treated.
